Honestly, they also enshitified it at launch by shipping alongside a rootkit.

The Helldiver 2 game shipped with a kernel level anticheat software, which is proven to be potentially harmful to player's computers but fairly ineffective against preventing cheating/hacking. The concept behind it is that a program that runs when your computer starts up with the highest level of privileges can see everything that the user is running which could hypothetically help the devs blacklist problematic programs that they're already aware of.

Most people, I think, don't even know what a rootkit is, so why should they care about it?

The thing is, they are right

They're correct but they're not morally right, yes.

Agreed

And people are still buying and installing it in their computer? I don't care if it's the best game in the history of mankind, if it's require kernel level access, it ain't gonna be on my PC.

On Linux the anti-cheat does not run at kernel level.
But knowing Sony they're going to decide to disallow Linux.
